Respuesta :
180(n-2) = 1080
180n - 360 = 1080
180n = 1080 + 360
180n = 1440
n = 1440/180
n = 8
The answer is 8 sides.
The sum of the interior angles in a regular polygon is given by the formula 180(n – 2), where n is the number of sides in the polygon. An octagon has eight sides, so the sum of the angles of the octagon is 180(8 – 2) = 180(6) = 1080 degrees.
180n - 360 = 1080
180n = 1080 + 360
180n = 1440
n = 1440/180
n = 8
The answer is 8 sides.

Formula for sum of interior angles of a convex polygon is (n - 2)×180°
Let's set the formula equal to our given polygon sum... n = number of sides
(n - 2)×180 = 1080
n - 2 = 6
n = 8
Answer: The polygon has 8 sides...octagon
